18 Powerful Quotes To Inspire YOUR Healing Journey

Written by: Kat Gal

I remember that miserably feeling of being in deep pain – both physically and emotionally.

I remember how desperately I wanted to get better. I was ready and I set out on my healing journey. Little did I know that this journey wasn’t easy.I had to face my deepest fears. I had to face my pain. I had to question all my thoughts, emotions and actions. I had to surrender to my pain and be truly willing to change in order to heal.

The more I was able to understand, the more I was able to accept it. The more I was able to accept my current state of pain, the more I was able to release this pain and to be open for something new. The more I stopped trying to control everything – but instead welcomed the unexpected and became willing to try the unknown – the better I started to feel.

Though my chronic pain is of the past, I have realized that healing is a lifelong journey.

There is always something you find underneath your layers as you dig deeper and life always throws some new challenges and roadblocks. It is crucial to embrace this journey, to embrace it is as it is with all it’s craziness. Sometimes it will feel amazing, other times it may feel messy or super low. It is all part of the process…

When feeling in doubt or hitting low points, turning to some of my ‘teachers’ for some inspirations always helps to remind me that all pain has its reasons and is there to help me learn, grow and transform into a better person.

Here are 18 quotes to inspire you on your own healing journey:

“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.” ~Kahlil Gibran

“Dance, when you’re broken open. Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you’re perfectly free.” ~Rumi

“Until you heal the wounds of your past, you are going to bleed. You can bandage the bleeding with food, with alcohol, with drugs, with work, with cigarettes, with sex; but eventually, it will all ooze through and stain your life. You must find the strength to open the wounds, stick your hands inside, pull out the core of the pain that is holding you in your past, the memories and make peace with them.” ~Iyanla Vanzant

“We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey.” ~Kenji Miyazawa

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.” ~Rainer Maria Rilke

“We do not heal the past by dwelling there; we heal the past by living fully in the present.” ~Marianne Williamson
